2018 Parliament of the World’s Religions

Pursuing Global Understanding, Reconciliation and Change

The Metro Toronto Convention Centre, Toronto

November 2nd – 6th 2018

The Science & Religion track has been created jointly by the Institute on Religion in an Age of Science (IRAS) and the International Society on Science and Religion (ISSR), specifically addressing the major themes of the 2019 Parliament. The presenters include some experienced academics (including one Nobel Laureate) and representatives of several major religions in the world, all of whom take seriously the latest knowledge developed by sound science. Issues addressed include human origins, cosmology, the nature of evil, genetic manipulation, climate change, food distribution, the brain and human emotion, the search for life in the galaxy, human health and well being. Each session will present latest research with slide illustrations, and each presenter will allow time for questions and discussion. For more information, visit our booth # 425 in the Parliament’s Exhibit Fair.

There will be a number of presentations on science and religion at the Parliament. One that ISSR is sponsoring is by Moez Masoud on Science, Religion and Global Justice.

All sessions will be held in the Metro Toronto Convention Centre
